Can someone explain what just happened?
New to the site, and I'm having some trouble interpreting the symbols/rules. I'm *NOT* looking for advice, just an explanation of what happened.

Question About Retreating
I have a question regarding the rules of retreating. I'm new to this game and I didn't venture to read all of the threads, so I'm sorry if this topic was already reviewed.

Question for Programmers
Im making an array, and I insert a value at a point in the array, and any unused area is assigned a zero. eg [7,3] and each previous cell gets a zero. My question is how do i write a method that deletes the excess zeros, but keeps the value. Later on, ill have to have it delete zeros when i have information in the first, third, seventh cell etc, and the rest are filled with zeros.

HEY JACKASS, VOTE DRAW
In case you missed it the first couple times. You cannot advance past the stalemate line, you're not doing anything to try, so stop dragging the game out and vote draw. For the bystanders: http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=40053#gamePanel

Bug?
In this game (http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=39585) Oz retreated a fleet from Dumont dUrville to Vostok (in spring 2003, retreats). It seems like a bug to me, but please enlighten me...

Signaling in gunboat games?
Can someone please explain any standard conventions that exist for signaling in gunboat games? Like...I think ordering a support hold to someone else's unit must mean something, but I'm not sure what.

Moves saved or ready
Hi, another newby question. If you have moves saved but not ready when the movement phase ends, will these moves be implemented, or will you be treated as having not entered any moves?

Is there any help page that explains how the webdiplomacy interface works, as opposed to the rules of the game? All I can find are the FAQ, the introduction, and the rulebook, none of which provide many details of this.

Is there any interest in a high-ish pot live gunboat tonight? I'd set up a game and make it password protected. I'm thinking maybe 50 yen buy-in. Reply or message if this interests you.

What did I do wrong on this math problem?
I'm trying to find the equation of a parabola by using 3 of its points. The points are (1,6) (3,26) and (-2,21). I'm trying to find the form y=ax^2+bx+c. I worked out a to be 2.5, but the book says it is 3. You can find my work inside.

I am REALLY Losing Faith...
I am rapidly lost my faith in democracy--living through it the last decade plus, from the last couple disgraceful years of Clinton to Bush II's Regime to Obama's Bust (AND Ahnuld and our near-last education, jobs, etc. in CAL) right here in my home state, I now think maybe Plato was right...and Hobbes...I'm not advocating for "1984" or an Emperor or Reich here, but...well, all this bickering and I see FAR more hurt and waste than good...discuss?

Really, I'm surprised no one, in their quest to make some dough off of this, has slapped on the obvious:

Just print the words "Don't Panic" in large, purle lettes on the cover and you'll sell a ton (and jsut underneath, in fine print, put "Disclaimer: The above statement ios not in any way, shape, or form to be taken as a literal interpretation of the author's meaning: OF COURSE you have things to worry about.")
